Recently, I wanted to self-host HeadScale(open source TailScale server) on my own server. </p> <p>During self hosting, I realised that HeadScale is not a drop-in replacement for TailScale. HeadScale <a href="https://github.com/juanfont/headscale/issues/1651">doesn't support app-connectors</a>.</p> <p><img alt="netbird" src="https://avilpage.com/images/netbird.png"></p> <p><a href="https://github.com/netbirdio/netbird">NetBird</a> is completely open source and has a self-hosted server. Setting up split DNS tunneling and routing is easier with NetBird.</p> <p>NetBird still doesn't have support for light theme yet. Since I am not accustomed to dark theme, I am using <a href="https://github.com/openstyles/stylus">Stylus</a> extension and changing the theme to light theme.</p> <div class="code"><pre class="code literal-block"><span class="nt">html</span><span class="w"> </span><span class="p">{</span><span class="w"> </span><span class="k">filter</span><span class="p">:</span><span class="w"> </span><span class="nb">invert</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="mi">1</span><span class="p">)</span><span class="w"> </span><span class="nb">hue-rotate</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="mi">180</span><span class="kt">deg</span><span class="p">);</span><span class="w"> </span><span class="k">background</span><span class="p">:</span><span class="w"> </span><span class="mh">#fff</span><span class="p">;</span><span class="w"> </span><span class="p">}</span> <span class="nt">img</span><span class="o">,</span><span class="w"> </span><span class="nt">svg</span><span class="o">,</span><span class="w"> </span><span class="nt">video</span><span class="o">,</span><span class="w"> </span><span class="nt">canvas</span><span class="o">,</span><span class="w"> </span><span class="o">[</span><span class="nt">style</span><span class="o">*=</span><span class="s2">"background-image"</span><span class="o">]</span><span class="w"> </span><span class="p">{</span><span class="w"> </span><span class="k">filter</span><span class="p">:</span><span class="w"> </span><span class="nb">invert</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="mi">1</span><span class="p">)</span><span class="w"> </span><span class="nb">hue-rotate</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="mi">180</span><span class="kt">deg</span><span class="p">);</span><span class="w"> </span><span class="p">}</span> </pre></div>networkingself-hostinghttps://avilpage.com/2026/06/moving-from-tailscale-to-netbird.htmlSat, 27 Jun 2026 05:43:54 GMT
